Marie Madelaine Nadeau

Notes:

FACT: Denis wrote a most sympathetic letter to his daughter, Marie Madeleine, who was about to marry Pierre Francois Rigaud, bailiff at the Superior Council of Quebec. Beaumont, Apr 14, 1744
"I received your letter, my dear daughter, through Mr Charle, our paster, and I hastern to reply. I consent to your marriage if it is to your advantage, since I do not know (the man) who seeks your hand. But our pastor told me that he knew him and that he was an honest man. I have nothing to give you at this time, since I am finding it hard to even subsist and I do not even have seed to sow my lands. Understand my embarassment. But you lose nothing and I will not cause you any loss, nor to the others, and you will be able to marry with your rights. I wish for you all the benedictions of the Lord. Your mother and your brothers and sisters embrace you. I am will all possible tenderness your good father. Denis Nadeau
